Deputies Say Pot and Popsicles Don't Mix

Wed, Jul 23, 2008 1:57 pm

SPRING HILL — Hernando County sheriff's deputies have arrested a 34-year-old Spring Hill man, accusing him of smoking marijuana while he sat inside of an ice cream truck.

Gregory Westberry was charged Thursday with marijuana possession and possession of drug paraphernalia. On Friday afternoon, the Hernando County Jail had no record of Westberry still being in custody.

Deputies responding to a call at about 5:30 p.m. about a suspicious vehicle in a parking lot near 5226 Applegate Road approached an ice cream truck with the name "Hokey Pokey" on the side and rear.

Inside the truck was Westberry who, according to the arrest report, had "extremely slurred speech" and dilated pupils.

Westberry told the deputies that he had just finished his ice cream route and was waiting in the parking lot to pick up his children at a nearby day care center.

He eventually admitted to smoking a small amount of marijuana and drinking at least five beers while in the parking lot, according to the report.

Deputies said they found a little less than a gram of marijuana in a clear plastic bag and black smoking pipe in Westberry's pockets. Westberry was then arrested at the scene.

They only could have got him for public intoxication if he were charged with any alcohol related crimes. He may have intended to drive drunk later but he didn't..instead he was stupid and drank some beers and smoked weed.

I hope he was just trying to get out of an arrest by saying that he was about to go pick his kids up..going and picking up your kids after you've been drinking AND smoking is very irresponsible and gives those of us who actualy care about reform a bad name.

To Umm...

Jul 23 2008, 9:49 pm

Dude...Are you kidding me?!?! He drank FIVE beers, his speech was slurred so I guarantee he wasn't in the greatest condition to drive. Yes, he may have thought he was fine but posed a great risk to others. Drinking and driving is fucking retarded.

Ummm...Umm.. I'm a bit surprised at your comment. You are taking the side of this moron in the ice cream truck!?! Its people like this that keep us from getting this stuff legalized or at least decriminalized. He had consumed FIVE beers and was going to pick up HIS CHILDREN!! We WANT the police to pick up the morons and leave the folks who are medicating responsibly alone. I don't have a problem with the cops I have a problem with the LAW.

So he was arrested for the pot.
What about the drinking of the 5 beers? He was about to go pick up his kids from daycare. DUI?

P.S. Go bust some meth labs you pussies.

I am shocked and absolutley appalled at the treatment of this poor father just trying to pick up his child from day care . Thats not a lot of beer and he was just sitting in a parking lot imbibing some sacrament /medicine . Maybe he has a condition . Maybe he has a prescription . Maybe they planted it on him . And they never took the childs welfare into concideration . Shame on the haters .
Since nobody can deny what I've said with any degree of reality . I concider the subject closed .
